Eventually, lots of people get bored with school and its everyday routine. Yes, I do think that school is really fun, but I get bored of following a schedule and doing the same things each day if I don’t add variety. If you add variety to your normal style, you can prevent boredom. Show your friends that you’re cool and fun, and that you’re not afraid of new things and changes! You don’t have to make drastic changes, just do a few things you’re not used to doing when you get ready for school. Here’s a few examples of how I add variety every day:

I have wavy hair that I mostly wear down, so sometimes I’ll dry it straight or put it in a pony-tail or bun. Drying my hair straight only takes a few minutes and it’s really easy!

I don’t usually take the time to put on make-up, but when I do, it’s usually natural colors. So I might add a little more color to my day by using bright energetic colors if I feel like I need some variety.

I usually wear a graphic tee and some cute shorts when the weather’s nice, but when I feel like I want to change, I wear a tunic and a belt and a scarf over leggings.

I have a charm that I hang on my backpack. When I get bored, I add a different one.

These are only a few simple things I do. I do much more, but I didn’t want to bore you with a long list! I just wanted to share these really simple things with you, because they helped me. I’d love to hear about your ideas for variety every day, and I really want to use them, so please tell me yours!!!! :D
